Last week, it was revealed that all four members of Evolution (Triple H, Ric Flair, Randy Orton, and Batista) will be returning for the 1000th episode of Smackdown. This will take place on October 16th in Washington.
It looks like we can add some more names to that list. Warning, the rest of this article will feature some spoilers for Smackdown 1000.
– According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, Rey Mysterio is currently slated to return at Smackdown 1000. It was reported last month that Rey had signed a two-year deal with WWE. The company was waiting for the right time to bring him back into storylines.
Rey spent a good chunk of his career on the Smackdown brand.
– Johnson says that WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long is being locally advertised in Washington for the event. He played a big role in the history of Smackdown as the General Manager for several years.
– Vickie Guerrero is also being locally advertised for the show. She was the General Manager of the blue brand from 2008 to 2011.
UPDATE: Michelle McCool and Torrie Wilson are also being advertised according to PWInsider.
We will keep you updated when more names are made official for the show. It looks like it will be a fun night though.
